Rarg, what?


Rarg (a phrase smushed together with the constant use of Mutant Enemy’s ‘grr arg’) is the personal keepings of Elly. It comprises mostly of ramblings, thoughts and is a place to store noted of things interest, things of disinterest and some of the old content kept for historical purposes.


Elly is a webdesigner (currently working with Sinter Design and Development), a snowboarder (current mountain of choice – Ruapehu) and an avid teevee watcher (I’m not listing any shows for you – there are too many!).


Elly has a thing for pretty shoes, is currently addicted to Bundaberg Gingerbeer, and has a puppy wandering around in a pirate t-shirt. She is not interested in uneccessary drama, office politics, or jokes at the expense of other people. She also dislikes onions, falling (not to be confused with heights) and slugs, but adores snowboarding, snuggling and socks.


She is dyslexic, has brown eyes and prefers vanilla icecream over chocolate. She is currently taking over the internet by joining all the networking sites she can get her hands on (facebook, myspace, bebo, orkut, linkedIn, Livejournal, Insanejournal, Greatest Journal, Blogger, Journalfen, Sharemynz, flickr and probably many many more), but surprisingly isn’t interested in “friending” strangers, not unless you’re a really ‘cool’ stranger.


There are a few other people that occasionally feature on Rarg:


Boys


Elly was involved with a boy (akaThe Boy) but he was a poo head and they have since, tragically parted ways. There are many other boys that feature on rarg, I’m sure you’ll come across some of them if you read long enough.


All posts mentioning said boys are tagged as ‘Boys‘.


The Square


The Square are four people (one of which is Elly) who are incredibly good friends who get on superbly. They have a pretty intense and incestuous history. For example, imagine 4 people, and number them 1 – 4. Now, imagine this: 1, 2 + 3 went to uni together, 1 + 2 are ex’s, 2 + 3 live together, 3 + 4 work together, 1 + 4 are bff’s. And those are just the direct relationships. Elly hangs out with the other three on a fairly regular basis (though, not regular enough to suit her) and as such they are mentioned at Rarg on a fairly frequent basis.

Quinn


Quinn is Elly’s dog. He is a fully grown miniture Yorkshire Terrier (think puppy size, around 2Kg. The average Yorkie is around 3-4kgs), and yes he is very cute. He is not a puppy, despite all references that say so (at the time of writing he will be 2 years in August). Yes he requires regular haircuts, yes he attends doggy day care (good for socialising and to teach him that he is a dog, not a human), and yes he wears clothes (though this was under protest by Elly. But when she took him to the Vet because he was shivering, the Vet suggested clothes because he was, in fact, cold. And if he has to wear clothes, then it’s going to be cool clothes, dammit). No he doesn’t bark that much (only when playing or when defending his territory from the person walking up the drive) and yes, he was expensive (think $1200+ not including vet fees.) That’s probably enough about Quinn.

If you want to know anything more, you’ll just have to ask her yourself, which can you do by emailing:


elly@rarg.co.nz


Elly will probably respond. Especially if your one of the ‘cool’ stranger types.
